Word is getting out about Chicago’s West Town neighborhood emerging as a great place to live and play as rents and home prices climb ever higher to the east in River North. This particular top-floor unit located at Chicago and Greenview Avenue is both modern and inviting thanks to its warm hardwood floors and a 20-foot living room with diamond patterned inlaid wall coverings.
Impressive southern views of downtown’s skyline and the nearby Byzantine revival Holy Innocents Church can be enjoyed from both the unit’s balcony and living room thanks to oversized windows. Though the listing describes the home as having two bedrooms on the main level, it appears the the second bedroom was opened up to the main room and converted into a dedicated dining space. The kitchen features modern wood cabinetry, plenty of granite-topped counter space, and the ubiquitous stainless steel appliances.
Both of the unit’s full bathrooms come with stone finishes. Marble is used extensively in the master, while dark slate clads bathroom number two. A contemporary wood and steel staircase in the middle of the home leads directly to an expansive private rooftop deck that offers stunning views of its own. At $450,000, 808 N Greenview Unit 4C offers considerably more bang for your real estate buck compared to many properties found on the other side of the highway and comes with an indoor parking space to boot.
